somehow i'm supposed to do my end-of-week work and clean the apartment, after dancing my butt off all day. eek. i'm so tired... the choreography class kicked my ass, we learned a minute and a half routine in just 3 hours and then i practiced it dozens of times to get it right before the performance. it was tough for an inexperienced crowd; out of almost 100 people who started the class, only 8 of us actually made it to the end to perform it. it went well though, only a few mistakes... so i'm looking forward to getting the DVD of the performance so i can see what it looked like. :)

i made it to the finals for the novice jack and jill competition (yay!), a huge surprise because there were some amazing gals in that division. but for the finals, i got paired with a guy who i don't connect well with... we danced once before in a competition, and for some reason i just don't get his lead. so my sucky follow dragged our performance down, and we came in last out of 6 couples. *sigh*. i'm sure he'll avoid me like the plague from now on.

on a whole, great weekend. good classes, great people, a few local rockstars actually asked me to dance, and i got complimented by a couple of the pros on my choreography class performance. yay! but now i have to come back to real life, watch a little "rock star: INXS", and work like a mo-fo.
